Run by Lee Foss, Jamie Jones and Richy Ahmed, Hot Waves is the digital sub-label of Hot Creations, the UK imprint that's shot to popularity over the past year with its reliable brand of floor-friendly house. Much like Hot Waves Volume 1, the collection mostly highlights up-and-coming producers, including the US/Scottish duo WildKats, Italy's Dirty Channels, Barcelona's Miquel Puente and a bunch of artists from the UK and elsewhere.

Some of the old guard make an appearance as well, such as Russ Yallop, Maxxi Soundsystem and Foss himself. The collections features 19 productions in all, four of which will also appear on a limited edition vinyl sampler.
